Uterine ProlapseFrom: Janet (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 26 Mar 1997 17:18:37 -0600 (CST)
I Have a prolapsed uterus to the point where my cervix is sometimes protruding about an inch outside of me . I also have a cystocele and a rectocele.(They occured before the prolapse) I really do not want a hysterectomy. I live on Long Island and I am having trouble finding a doctor that will do a uterine suspension.Does anyone know of any doctor that specializes in this? I am 42 years old and have not gone through menopause yet. I have read that a hysterectomy cuts off some of the blood supply to the ovaries and causes a woman to go into menopause sooner than she normally would. I also have heard the uterus affects sexual response, affects the support of other organs and releases chemicals in the body that contribute to your overall feeling of well being(endorphins). I am sorry that this is so long, but if there is anyone out there that can help me please write. Oh, also at what point should I give up on doing Kegels. They seem like they don't do a darn thing.
